Every meaningful therapy conversation includes a significant presence of difficult emotions–symptoms, responses, anger, fear, etc. We will have a conversation about how to skillfully welcome and utilize such negative experiences as integral parts of a successful, creative therapy.

Educational Objectives:

Identify at least 6 different negative experiences that are common parts of a therapy conversation.

Describe how positive “welcoming” of these negative events can positively transform a problem into a resource.
